Mixtikl 5, the Mac App Store and stuff

Posted on November 9, 2011 by Tim Cole

We have been very busy for many months now on Mixtikl 5.

Mixtikl 5 will include a number of additions and extensions such as MIDI recording and the ability to beat sync the delay unit (which really is fun), as well as further improvements to the UI and e.g. making it easier to tweet and email mixes (including in this release the ability to easily email of audio recordings).

However, the main thrust for us in this release is in some new areas of capability that we hope people will really have fun with. Although I would like to say more now, I don’t want to tempt fate (we are still deep in testing). :)

Mixtikl 5 will also see a number of changes for how we do things, and we look forward to release day and talking all about it – which we *hope* will be by the end of November.

Mixtikl 5 in the works – generative music and more

Posted on October 25, 2011 by Tim Cole

We are busy working on Mixtikl 5. It will still be a while yet before it is ready, and it will require iOS 5+ (which runs on iPad/iPad 2 and Gen 3+ iPhone/iPod touch). Please note: Mixtikl 4.0.0.3 is the last version, therefore, for iOS 3 or iOS 4. If you cannot update your device to iOS 5, then please do not download the update when it comes! We think you will enjoy Mixtikl 5, which will have some new fun things… but we can’t say any more just yet :) .

Mixtikl 4.0.0.3 released

Posted on August 6, 2011 by Tim Cole

This blog post is a bit late :) , as we announced it at the time on Twitter and fFacebook, but we are just bringing the blog up to date.

Mixtikl 4.0.0.3

Now available on the App Store and with desktop versions available for download from our website.

Mixtikl 4.0 is the 17th free update since Mixtikl 2, and another big advance for Mixtikl. It brings drill-down parameter editing of core Noatikl parameters, allowing you to customise all included generative content. Messing with patterns and pattern randomisation can be a lot of fun for generating new riff ideas and arps. The Noatikl parameter editor is primarily aimed mainly at Noatikl users who are familiar with Noatikl for PC/Mac, which is also recommended for constructing pieces from scratch. That said, if you are into experimenting and you don’t know Noatikl, there is a still a ton to mess with! It is a free update for licenced owners of Mixtikl 2.x/3.x.

Also see the page listing differences between Mixtikl (Full) and Mixtikl Free: http://www.intermorphic.com/tools/mixtikl/variants.html

✓ New: Integrated drill-down Noatikl parameter editor for generative content customisation: – All of the core Noatikl parameters are available for real-time editing
- All changes saved when you save the mix, which can be tweeted
- Pattern editing with text editing of sub-patterns and randomisation options
- Import Noatikl files (created with Noatikl desktop, available separately) from the clipboard
- Save Noatikl files to User Content folder
- New Noatikl Seed pak, containing simple Noatikl voice type definitions

Mixtikl Free Generative Music App now available in the Apple App Store

Posted on June 14, 2011 by Tim Cole

Mixtikl Free (for iPhone / iPad / iPod touch) is now available on the Apple App Store – http://itunes.apple.com/app/id436861817.

Mixtikl Free Is a new little bro for Mixtikl (Full): http://itunes.apple.com/app/id347409277

You can read about the differences between the two, here: http://www.intermorphic.com/tools/mixtikl/variants.html.

Mixtikl Free means that ANYONE with an iPhone/iPad/iPod touch can hear a mix you have tweeted/shared without having to first make a purchase of an app. We hope that this also encourages people to tweet their mixes and we hope that it helps Generative Music (of the Noatikl variety, as a Noatikl generative music runtime engine is in Mixtikl) to reach even further across the world!

We have updated Noatikl to version 1.8.0.6

Noatikl notes always used to be played “Legato” – this allows you to play them staccato!

* Articulation variation range

- Mac: Fixed problem with auto-loading via Finder file double-click.
